Kensington PocketMouse Wireless Mini Travel Mouse
2 people recommended this item
Description
I use my wireless mic so often, I'd be lost without it. This is a good mouse for students because it is wireless and portable. Two button mouse with scroll wheel in the middle, it's everything your college student needs to surf the web for hours on end watching YouTube videos. When they're finished with their homework, of course!

MINI Cooper S Model

Description
Mini!
All are devastatingly charming. Some are zippier than others. I'm not going to dork out and write about how it "handles" or its highway "MPG's" or whatever because, really, zzzzzzzzz... you've heard it all before. However, I will say that I appreciate how elegantly executed and sturdy my little four-wheeled friend is.
Also, among the 6 airbags that come standard, there are two that run along the sides, from front to back, that were refered to at the dealership as being the "sausages." That means my car has sausages! Built in! That makes me laugh. There is no better way to (a) spend your money or (b) start your commute than sharing a laugh with a trusted pal.

Colored Staples

Description
Stapler bling. With my new green staples I've been stapling with wild abandon. I now want to order every color and alternate them in my stapler so it's like a gumball machind and I never know what's going to pop out. You don't think I have a problem, do you?

LA Mill Coffee

Description
I'm partial to Robins' Nest Blend, but you can only get it at Robin's Nest... so non Venetians have to settle for the merely sublime roasts available online.
Chocolatey, rich, roasty jet fuel provoeds the va-va voom I need to keep up with the ThisNext community.
P.S. I go with a French Press... as close to a drip as you can get (the kind from an I.V., not your Mr. Coffee)

Description
Air-contidioned offices are dusty, musty, sneezy. Eew! We just put this in... hopefully it will lead to fewer Achoo!'s.
Love that it has no filters to replace because, really, who can be bothered?

Canson Field Sketchbooks
First to recommend
Description
My go-to work notebook for years. I have a drawer full of used ones at home. I've used them as journals and for work. I have on occasion been seduced by a signature-bound Italian book or a smaller field notebook but always come back to these because:
1-Spiral bound stays open without a paperweight/hands.
2-With the hard cover you don't have to be at your desk.
3-7X10 size is big enough but not too big.
4-Black is always the new black.
5-To me, lines are suffocating.

Vaja Blackberry Case
First to recommend
Description
Blackberry Couture!
Made to order by hand in Argentina just for my little device. Mine's yellow. And it has my name on the back.
Pros: craftsmanship, personalization, protection, screen protector
Con: takes a few weeks to make and ship... but it's worth it!
Vajacases.com makes cases for EVERYTHING, by the way; not just b'berries.

iSight

2 people recommended this item
Description
I spy with my little iSight people I miss and people I work with who are far, far away.
As a pal said when first he beheld the iSight, "Ooh, look, it's the future."
Easy (use it with your AIM or .MAC IM).
Cheap ($149!).
Pretty (picture is clear and without skips).

Pink Motorola Bluetooth Headset H500

Description
I know it's pink but somebody please remind to take this off. It's so light I often wander about for hours with it tucked behind my ear. Next thing you know I'll be clipping my Blackberry to my pants. Perish the thought.
